  1. D750+Nikon 14-24 No insects, or split toning! Sorry!
  2. Me, too! For everyone...
  3. I'd love to take advantage of the Z6 deals, was in the plan to do so this summer, but alas, what with the unemployment and all...
  4. We went to see the wild horses again. D750+Nikon 70-200f4 and Sigma 150-600.
  5. We did some social distancing with the wild horses. D750+Sigma 150-600. The last guy looks like he's braying, but he's actually yawning. :)
  6. Shot some full moonrise last week. D750+Sigma 150-600.
  7. Oh what a pretty girl. We lost ours a year ago, I still miss her every day. Sending you healing thoughts...
  8. Adventures in orchids. D750+70-200 f4 with extension tubes. The first two are focus stacked. The second one was taken barely 12 hours later. (I'd love to try a time lapse of it opening but it happens overnight, so I'm not sure how I'd light it.) I just focus stacked the inside of the flower and I used a Helicon software trial which was much faster and more accurate than PS. The third one used Lensbaby Velvet 85 and a texture background.
  9. Not a very spring-like image, I admit. I was just screwing around in photoshop yesterday, and this was on my laptop. (My desktop is where I do most of my photo editing and where all my photos are stored, but my husband is in the office 24/7 these days between online grad school and working from home, and this was just something I had on my laptop...) Nikon D750+24-85VR.
  10. Hi bgelfand, thanks for your kind words. I have the 24-70 F2.8 E ED IF VR AF-S. I had to look up all those letters, just to be sure. ;) ISO 100, f8, 1/3 of a second. I think I stacked 10 pictures. But I think I took probably 70 pics trying to figure out the app...I found it not very intuitive, and placing the focus points (you place start and end points) was a bit finicky. Also I needed to learn where the best points to place them were. I had been thinking top to bottom, but when I went edge closest to me to very center it was best. I guess you figure that out from doing it enough. So, still learning. I think it's a good app if one practices more often. Also there are a couple of blurry blotches when you zoom in really tight where Photoshop didn't do such a great job, but I don't feel ready to download Helicon.
  11. Two takes of an orchid. D750+Lensbaby Velvet 85 and 24-70. The first was for practice using textures, and for the second I was practicing focus stacking using QdslrDashboard.
  12. The cedar waxwings came to visit our neighbor's tree. D750+Sigma 150-600.
  13. Didn't get out this week, here's one from a couple weeks ago at the Bear River Migratory Bird Refuge. (No bird content. :)
  14. I just read that BRMBR still has lots of hawks and herons, but no eagle sightings yet. Someone said at Farmington Bay they hadn't seen any eagles yet, that in the next couple weeks they'll start showing up. We saw probably 4-6 at Willard. Seems like I saw a pic of one at Utah Lake recently. I'd really like to know where the one that was in my neighborhood was going. :)
  15. They were at Willard Bay state park. Evidently right now they are everywhere at the bird refuges. In fact, you don't need to go far to see them, one flew overhead in my neighborhood on Sunday.
